LOVE SHACK PROJECT — A LIVING ROOM

Now that I’ve finally gotten my art up on the walls, I’m able to start working on the rest of the living room! The challenge is that it’s very small! ( 9′ x 15′)

I started by building in a wall of shelves along the far wall, echoing the shelving in the bedroom. I did this by taking some of the shelves I’d gotten during ” Adventures in Shelving” and deconstructing one into extra shelves to add into the others, and connected them in the middle under the window. That gives me double capacity for the same amount of space!

I also created a small desk in the center of wall unit, under the window, by adding in a large piece of plywood and legs! The whole thing is only connected to the wall at the window sill, so it’s stable but doesn’t disturb the plaster walls!

Next, I hung a bedroom door! I built the door frame into the giant picture frames, to again; avoid having to disturb the cottage walls. I found the door used on Craig’s List, along with several awesome and super tiny chairs!

You hung this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension – a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into the Lorielle New Zone.
